Get an arch liner for the drivers side and new checkstraps for the door

Replace the painted white centre console for the original silver Ph2 one - looks way better IMHO.

Get a set of Ph3 clocks and replace the needles for the white items rather than the orange ones.

Replace the oval indicators for the Ph3 clear white ones IMO.

whats the checkstrap? and no centre console is staying as it is I've colour coded it as i want it and i may change my side repeaters to the ph3 one.

where can i get the white needles for the clocks?

[Ruan]

From a set of ph3 clocks.

The checkstrap is the bit that goes from the door to the chassis that holds it open, often clicks like a bastard, someone's removed the roll pin from yours so it stays in and doesn't click when you open the door...

I've got a few needles kicking about you can have mate

screwdriver through the checkstrap to pull it out of the car, then line it up and tap the roll pin home with something hard . .

Nice looking motor there pal. Not a great fan of white cyclones but its your car which is whats important. Get some black masks on it and yea change those indicators

[RetroPug]

I wonder whether white masks would look good?
No idea tbh..

Yeah I'm thinking of doing black masks, and I got some ph3 indicators so I'll swap them over

I wonder whether white masks would look good?
No idea tbh..

Hmm I think it would look good but I guess black is the safer option

[RetroPug]

Hmm I think it would look good but I guess black is the safer option

Yeah, guaranteed to look good, especially on a black car.
Blue masks also look excellent if you could get a good, dark-metallic blue that matched the colour of genuine ones.

Yeah I kinda like the idea of white may have to give that a go

[Nathan1305]

Thought i'd treat the car to a polish and wax today pretty happy with the results, excuse the rub strips they are being resprayed
